Congress is merely biding its time to put off Telangana issue
Congress has no desire to give Telangana statehood and is merely biding its time to put off the issue. Setting up of committees like Srikrishna Committee was just an eyewash. In contrast, BJP has been committed to separate Telangana state and if it comes to power at the Centre in next elections, it would at once announce statehood for the region, said BJP national president Nitin Gadkari.
After flagging off BJP’s ‘Telangana Poru Yatra’ launched by its AP president Kishan Reddy at Krishna village in Maganuru mandal in the district on Thursday, Gadkari addressed a public meeting at Matkal.
Earlier, Kishan Reddy unveiled the statue of Krushnamma Thalli on the banks of the River Krishna at Krishna village and conducted special puja at Dattatreya Swamy temple. Thereupon, he collected Krishna water in vessels and embarked on his 3,500-km Poru Yatra.
Addressing a public meeting on the occasion, Kishan Reddy said the objective of his yatra was to rally the Telangana people to mount pressure on the UPA government for a resolution in Parliament on their statehood demand.
Kishan Reddy will tour across Telangana and address various public meetings during the 22-day yatra which would conclude in Hyderabad on February 11. He said that prominent BJP leaders from others and the CMs of Himachal Pradesh and Chhattisgarh would address the public meetings.
T-JAC chairman Prof M Kodandaram said the two yatras in Telangana held by Seemandhra leaders Chandrababu Naidu and Jaganmohan Reddy could only take place with the presence of heavy security. Former TDP leader Nagam Janardhana Reddy and Madiga Reservation Porata Samithi president Manda Krishna Madiga and others also spoke.

NDA will form the government in center in 2014 and give Telangana with the support of 16 MPs of TRS from Telanagana. TDP and Jagan party will be wiped out from Telanagana. TRS will sweep TELANGANA and support NDA at the center.

Congress will neve give telangana. KCR and TRS knows this very well. They do not have the will to attack sonia or congress because either they are getting some favours from them or are afraid to attack congress or sonia because sonia has some files on KCR’s misdeeds. Whatever the reason, KCR is scared of the congress, that is why though the congress has to be taken to task, he never opens his mouth at all. On the other hand, he has to show his anger somewhere, so he attacks Naidu daily. Is Naidu the CM or Governor or Union Law Minster or Union Home Minister or PM or UPA Chairperson? Ha Ha ha. He is just a toothless opposition leader who does not have any power in our present democratic setup! But KCR acts as if Naidu is UPA Chairperson who has to take the decision on Telangana. He called off the Sakala Janula Samme based on the assurance of not the PM or UPA Chairperson or the Home Minister or the Law Minister or the Governor / AP or the CM of AP but on the assuarance of an inconsequential and worthless congress appointed internal AP-Incharge Congress person, who does not have any consitutional authority on Telangana state at all. Does’nt this say all and expose how KCR is cheating and expoliting Telanagana people? It is the worst kind of political drama and tricks.
